| LuckyCharms Magically Delicious ![]() , | #3 To the original OP, in many ways we are under too much pressure. Society has evolved into this highly complex organism. There are too many people for society to handle. There are too many responsibilities that aren't directly related to our survival. We have artificial goal sets that do not directly sustain our lives. And of course we are all fed this 24/7 news cycle that works to increase stress while not providing any real information. So yeah, there's a lot of stress. And then try to find some place where you can be all alone. It's hard to do. | ||||||

| davii I'm Awesome Deleted ![]() London, United Kingdom | #4 Well, that explains why people are nuts. What about the pressure? | ||||||

| psycoskunk A Funky Little Skunk ![]() Badass Crater of Badassitude, | #5 Checked. The Bible doesn't mention anything about what to do if your pilot suffers a mental breakdown during flight. No mentions of airplanes in that book at all. ![]() | ||||||

| davii I'm Awesome Deleted ![]() London, United Kingdom | #8 I fear my love life has suffered a simular fate | ||||||

futilevoice![]() , Illinois | #9 I agree but I will also add the Qu'ran since the pilot mentioned Al'Quaida. Obviously the fear of an attack by them prompted his rantings. | ||||||

CXI![]() , Australia | #10 People make a big deal out of everything. The littlest thing seems to mean more then it actually does. Things are taken to personally and a lot of people put this non-existent pressure on themseleves. I know a couple people who do that and when you actually repeat their "issue" to them it really seems trivial. Everyones got reasons though. | ||||||

It never ceases to amaze me how a handful of religious zealots can completely ruin what was at the very least a comfortable society and restrict our freedoms in this way, where we have to have security on airplanes and be searched like we are criminals in a lock up. | ||||||
